The wife had her 2nd interview with a company 2 weeks ago yesterday and they told her then it'd be a week or two before any decisions can be made. We still haven't heard anything. She's checked her online 'account' with them and it still says ' Under consideration'. She thinks if she would be rejected, the account would say something to the effect. Either way, wouldn't you think if she had been rejected they would have let us know by now? Anything?

I don't know if any of you busted boars are in HR, but any insight would be appreciated.

I was not in HR but I hired quite a few people and interviewed many. Honestly, I was horrible at following up with candidates and many times was so busy it was hard to find time. Usually HR does not make the decisions but just takes care of the paperwork. I would say the delay is probably due to the interviewer.

Also, keep in mind they may have not interviewed everyone yet. Sometimes what I planned to get done in 2 weeks turned into 3-4. If your wife is eager to know, it usually doesn't hurt to call unless they asked her not to. It never bothered me.
